Lord, help me to live that others may
Be glad that I chanced to pass their way.
Help me to smile through
worry and care,
Teach me that burdens lighten
through prayer.

May it never be said that I failed to lend
A helping hand to the need of a friend.
Grant that seeing Christ in others
I may recognize them as my
sisters and brothers.

Most of all let me live in Your grace
Content with my role in the human race,
That when this earthly life is through,
I may share eternity with you.
